Summary
The paper discusses the use of pupil light reflexes (PLRs) to chromatic stimuli as a diagnostic tool for Alzheimer's Disease, finding that certain features of PLRs, particularly the response to blue light, can indicate the presence of the disease.
Categories
Alzheimer's disease: The paper focuses on Alzheimer's Disease, discussing the use of pupil light reflexes to chromatic stimuli as a potential diagnostic tool.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses Alzheimer's Disease, a condition that significantly impacts cognitive function and memory.
Aging: The paper discusses the impact of aging on the pupil light reflexes, and how this can be used to detect Alzheimer's Disease.
